Short story 9

लघुकथाः  शत्रु

-ऋषि तिवारी

'कति छुच्ची है तिनी निरमाया ।'

चार पाँचजना महिलाहरु एक ढिका भएर गफको चुटाईमा ति सोझी निरमायाको कुरो काट्दै गरेको मेरो कानले सुन्यो । 

म उनिहरुको कुरो सुनेर मनमनै आफैं गफिएँ । उनिहरु एक ढिका थिए । म छेउमै गएर उनिहरुसंग प्रतिकार गर्न सक्दिन्थे । उनिहरु चार पाँच जना । म एक्लो पुरुष ।

म आफ्नै मनको संवादबाट प्रतिकार गर्दै थिएँ ।

 विचरी निरमाया जस्तो सोझी आइमाई आज सम्म देखेको छुइनँ । घर व्यवहार उनको असल छ, छोराछोरी आफ्नो लोग्नेको उनि देवी छिन । सासु ससुरा प्रति भक्ती भाव दर्शाउँछिन । अलिकति मुख छुच्चो भएर के भो ? उनको स्वभाव छुच्चो छैन । उनको आदर भावको कमि छैन । तर,  तर जस्तालाई त्यस्तै ढिडालाई निस्तै भने जस्तै उनी निडर छिन् । उनलाई कसैले जित्न सक्दैनन्थें । त्यसैले उनि छुच्ची थिइन् । 

उनको वारेमा सोच्दै थिएँ, झस्काइन् मेरै जीवन संगीनीले, 'हजुर आज कसको वारेमा कथा फुर्ने ?'  मैंले भने- 'तिनै सोझी निरमायाको ।' उनि पनि भन्न थालिन्- 'हैन हजुर उनि सोझी छैनन्,  'फुर्नुस्, फुर्नुस् कम्ताको छिन तिनी  आइमाई ?' 

मैंले यति बुझें ।  भने पनि उनलाई,'आइमाईको शत्रु नै आइमाई । के फुरौं कथा ?'

Short story: Enemy

 -Sage Tiwari

 'What a nipple she made.'

 My ears heard four or five women huddled together and talking to Sozhi Nirmaya.

 I listened to them and thought to myself.  They were a bunch.  I could go to the side and fight with them.  They are four or five.  I am a lonely man.

 I was retaliating with the dialogue of my own mind.

  I have never seen such a straightforward woman as Vichari Nirmaya.  She behaves well at home, she is a goddess of children and her husband.  Mother-in-law shows devotion to mother-in-law.  What's up with a little bit of a mouthful?  His nature is not naughty.  There is no lack of respect for him.  But, she is as fearless as she is.  No one could beat him.  So she was a nun.

 I was thinking about him, my life partner was shocked, 'Who are you talking about today?'  I said, "The same Sozhi Nirmaya."  She also began to say, "No, sir, she is not straightforward."

 I understand that.  Even if he said, 'Woman is the enemy of woman.  What about the story? '
